Fall photos

Sometimes being a mom is tough. Some days are long, exhausting, and frustrating. Does anyone else have those days, or is it just me? Most days are good, though, with the happy times far outnumbering the crazy times. Or maybe I'm just learning to accept, embrace even, the craziness. I am learning and growing...stretching....so much these days. Life is good and I often find myself counting my blessings. My list always begins with 4 certain people...

Molly, 5 years

Stockton, 2 years

Brynn, 7 months

There were so many cute ones it was hard to choose which to post!!

Molly's a pro at pictures now. She loved posing and kept asking the photographer to take more pictures. Stockton was a pain in the you-know-what. He wasn't going to let anyone "pose" him so all pictures of him are pretty candid. I think the photographer did an awesome job at capturing his personality. Some of his pictures make me laugh out loud. Brynn was good but a little shy and she did not like wearing that hat.

We tried to get some of all three of them but that was a joke! It was at the very end and everyone was done. Stockton was being a complete goof.

There were a few other good ones that belong in a "random" category...

And since Justin was there to help me, we decided to try for a family picture. This is the best one we got.

This was just the beginning. We got together with my family for more pictures the week after these were taken. I haven't seen them yet but they should be coming soon!
